Seat Ventilation Switch Test/Replacement

1. Remove the center console panel Center Console Panel Removal / Installation.

2. Disconnect the 16P [12P] connector from the seat ventilation switch (A).
[ ]: Front passenger's seat ventilation switch






3. Remove the two screws and the switch.

4. Check for continuity between the terminals in each switch position according to the table.

NOTE:

- Make sure the correct test lead (+ or -) is placed on the terminal.
- When checking for continuity across the diode, use the diode setting () on the digital volt/ohm meter to check the diode bias.
- Be careful of this characteristic; a diode is one that conducts fully in one direction (forward) and not at all in the opposite direction (reverse).





5. If the continuity check is not as specified, replace the seat ventilation switch.

6. Install the parts in the reverse order of removal.
